Anyone got a scan of the two clear joker plastics? Or got the measurements?

Are you looking to replace them? They do sell those 2 clear plastic air ball guards in front of joker. I just replaced mine.

So thrilled to have finally completed a pinball machine! I reached Gotham City wizard mode and beat it! I have mixed feelings now though, because I want to keep reaching for some goal! I recently finished all the characters except Lucious, I needed one more weapon. So I knew I was close! BDK is a great game. I’m really glad I found one and was able to get in the zone and have such a great game on it!

New member of the BDK club. Just got it on Wednesday. Going to install the McPit sound file and ColorDMD tonight. Was hoping to get some feedback on whether or not to invest in a shaker. Some say it's a "must have", others say it isn't used much. Any further comments to add to push me in either direction?

I had a shaker in mine. I'd say it's similar to Tron. Not too much use, but as you progress it gets used a lot more.

It ties in to some things better, like the batmbile ramp and other features, but it's totally up to you

I just installed the McPit sound package. Holy shit, what a difference!!!

To me the crane is one of the best-if not the best toy in all of pinball. Having a shaker to me for BDK is mandatory in order to increase effect of crane being hit. I relate it to drinking a Coke, you can drink it warm without ice, or cold with ice. Shaker is a must for BDK imo. Internal sub also really makes BDK come to life.

Hi guys I’m not in the club. But I am trying to help a friend wich has this game. So for the following question It might be best to ask in the owners club

My friends game is bone stock. He has problems with jammed balls at the right vuk.
Especially in multiballs. If two balls are in it at the same time the game is unable to clear them out. It tries but itwill just give an tech alert. It is running the latest code version. So that’s not the problem. Please help!

So I picked this game up a few days ago and got everything lit for Gotham except for Lucius Fox. I must have shot the ball through the mini playfield at least 30 times and still no completion. Does the ball have to go through both sides a number of times, what am I missing here?

So found out that you can't be in a mode or multiball for the mini playfield to count progress towards the weapons. Finally got to Gotham, woooo hoooo!!!

Welcome to the club-good job getting to Gotham! It is a fantastic game and one of my favorite movies which really helps with loving the theme. A shaker is a must(hitting crane) if you do not already have one and a sub also cranks on Dark Knight.

Jackpoooooooooot!

Hello Liakos, im not a technician so i cant help you sorry.
Have you tried using the service menu, to move the crane to check if move correctly?
If yes... maybe a software issue? Do you already have the last code version installed?

#292 3 years ago

Thnx creo... I will check now..

Shit... I just turned on game and it said v.05 ...lol

Anyone got a solution to clean shots to the left orbit bouncing out of the top VUK? shots that are a bit off seem to slow down and settle, claiming mystery/starting mode etc but a really clean shot goes round so fast it seems to hit the back and bounce straight back out. It's very hard to get in there without disassembling stuff so just wondered if anyone else has found a solution before i start pulling it all apart?

Is there something to stop it from bouncing? I forgot what it looks like, if it is just angled metal or they put a dead bounce material. My bdk is at the bar but I have a lotr with a similar shot I can look at

Doesn't seem to be anything in there to stop it bouncing. The area is very hard to get to, tough to get this photo, let alone get in there to do anything! I can't get a good video of the reject due to the angles, so it is hard to say why but shots do seem to enter it, just bounce back out without settling.

Just not sure where I'd add something to avoid it but not cause it to fail to enter on other shots.

I think I may have added a piece of foam to the upper angled part of the bracket to deaden it a bit. I’ll try and check.

I put a piece of drop dead foam? Or something like that in the back of the scoop and on the crane scoop and it helps a lot.

#300 3 years ago

Yep, took a pic. Small piece of target foam on the left side of the bracket.
